Cheap trick patina 70 - Page 8 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**superflysteiny** · 02-10-2015, 04:51 PM

I agree with you all. This manifold is one of the best bangs for the buck so I can live with the name. I am not willing to grind it off just to make it look smooth. Its not worth the time in my opinion. If I was building a full blown show truck that would be different. My opinion is logos don't make an engine suspension or part on a truck look non clean. I feel what makes these trucks look clean is the textures and the colors. Example my black truck was crazy clean in the engine compartment. I feel it had to do with textures and colors. Just my two cents. That's what makes this board great. I appreciate all of your guys input. We all have out own style so we all win.

I picked the wheels based on opinion from the board and what I thought would look he best on this truck. Thank you for all the input. Here is the wheels sorry if you did not pick them.

mooseknuckles · 02-13-2015, 08:40 PM

Trans looks good...love the wheels!

1stchevy · 02-14-2015, 10:09 AM

Gonna look good with those Intros and brushed trim.

**superflysteiny** · 02-14-2015, 12:47 PM

I figured with the brushed trim plus having to go to 5 on 4.75 this was the way to go

Gus350 · 02-14-2015, 01:31 PM

Did you spray the tranny with a gun or was it rattle can SEM

Thanks

JNJchev77 · 02-14-2015, 04:45 PM

Wheels look sick!! Trans and motor look really clean... Nice as usual!

Brannon yazell · 02-14-2015, 06:07 PM

You have made some great choices. Everything looks awesome.

**superflysteiny** · 02-15-2015, 01:51 AM

I prep with wax and grease remover. Then I tac rag it and I seal it with the black Sems. Then I top coat it with Sems hot rod black. It goes in a gun.

The picture is just primer. It has not been too coated yet.

slowcpe · 02-16-2015, 01:03 PM

Good choice on the wheels! What are the specs on the rear wheels?

22 by 10 4.75 back space

slowcpe · 02-16-2015, 05:04 PM

Thank you! I was thinking of going 12" out back but after seeing the huge price jump between a 10 and a 12, I'm thinking of going 10" with this kind of backspacing.

ya big difference in price between the 12 and 10

**superflysteiny** · 02-21-2015, 12:10 PM

Ok update. I got all the new trim on the sides of the bed. The bed has been done with line x. I am painting the wood black. And I am undecided on the strips but I have some ideas. Here are some pics.

flashed · 02-21-2015, 12:38 PM

I dont even (didnt used to anyway) like lowered trucks but ya'll have changed my way of thinking .This thing looks killer . I have always appreciated all the work and fab skills that the lowered trucks required but just didnt think it would ever be for me .If I ever do another I may try one .

kyuss · 02-21-2015, 02:21 PM

The bed looks incredible. Plus, really dig the black finish on the wood. You definitely have the touch with these trucks.
